Herbal Teas Australia Marshmallow Root

Marshmallow Root makes a soothing gel like substance that is traditionally used for a variety of health issues but can also be used to make delicious “real” marshmallow confectionary

It’s the therapeutic benefits that make this a very popular herb and safe for adults and children.

Because Marshmallow is packed with high levels of mucilage, it forms a protective, soothing gel for inflamed mucous membranes in the digestive respiratory and urinary tracts.

Commonly used for coughs, sore throats, acid reflex, ulcers and skin irritation. It can also be used topically as a poultice for inflammation, burns, wounds and abscesses.

Marshmallow root relieves symptoms of gastritis, peptic ulcers, colitis and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) by coating the stomach lining.

Best of all, Marshmallow root can be used to make “real” marshmallow confectionary and here’s some recipe ideas.

Combine 1 tablespoon of Marshmallow root with 1 cup of warm water. Mix with gelatine or Agar Agar, honey (or Maple syrup), vanilla extract and include probiotics. (Search the internet for recipes)

Add some Matcha Green powder for colour to boost the health benefits.
